Tasting Notes:
Amber in colour with bright golden highlights. Aromas of dried figs, sultanas, roasted nuts and subtle notes of honey and spice. The palate is smooth and harmonious, offering layers of caramel, orange zest and toasted almond, supported by lively acidity that adds freshness. The finish is long, nutty and refined, with lingering notes of dried fruit and spice.
Serving Tips & Storage
Colheita Ports are bottled ready to enjoy and require no decanting. Serve slightly chilled (12–14°C) to enhance freshness and aromatic expression. This 2014 Colheita pairs beautifully with pecan pie, tarte tatin, crème caramel or a selection of mature cheeses. Once opened, the wine will remain in good condition for several weeks if stored upright in a cool environment. Please store unopened bottles on their side, in a cool, dark space away from heat and light.
Palmer is an independent Port house with a reputation for producing traditional styles at outstanding value. Samuel Palmer, a late ancestor of the Van Zeller family – once owner of Casa de Malladas – was a maverick and a remarkable icon in the trade of high-quality Port shipped to England. Paying attention to every single detail, the Van Zeller family have carefully aged their wines in the highest quality oak casks to ensure that they mature these rare elixirs as Samuel Palmer once wanted them to be. Specialising in Colheitas, Tawnies and Aged Ports, Palmer sources its grapes from the Douro Valley’s schistous vineyards, crafting expressive, authentic wines that combine heritage with elegance.
